    I love this lipstick! I am quite pale so I wanted a red lipstick that was pretty but wasn't bright. I love the colour of this lipstick as it's so easy to wear. I love the packaging and the standard...

    Well, I am not overwhelmed by this! After years of reading about this, I finally splashed out, as I wanted a red lip that was not garish. Maybe its my colouring and face shape, but this product...

    I never thought I'd suit a dark red lip, but I was pleasantly surprised. This is the Original MAC Viva Glam from the 90's and it's still popular today. I think that says a lot about the product....

    I typically don't wear red lip colors except for this little gem. Its a gorgeous deep red that doesn't look clownish or cheap. The matte formula lasts an average of 6 hours without moving or...

    My go to favourite. I can wear this one all day without a touch up. It fades evenly and I don't need a lip liner with it. It does have a faint waxy odour but I don't find it unpleasant, just that...

    I needed a good retro looking deep red. Ruby Woo, she didn't work for me, she went too blue red on me. I needed darker deeper. So I dropped what to me is a ridiculous amount of money for a...

    Amazing red lipstick! I have nothing like it. I have a warm skin tone and I was worried it would be too blue based/cool-toned or possibly be unflattering but it wasn't at all. I wouldn't call this...

    The best red on me. Doesn't look clownish, just a great neutral, somewhat browned red that doesn't make your teeth look yellowish, the way blue reds can do. It's practically the only red lipstick I...

    This lipstick is the perfect blue toned lipstick for me, because it has some brown tones which make it a deeper red that's perfect for any season, but especially fall. I l think this red could look...

    This is my second favorite lip color besides dubonnet. They are very similar colors but dubonnet is amplified and is the only amplified I own (the others including vg1 are matte). I love the brown...

    one of my favorite reds. It's a brick red. It would look good on any skin tone (My opinion, of course. ;) ) I am Hispanic and I have a little bit of a tan tone (I am horrible describing tones)...

    It wasn't love at first sight. I tried this on in the store, and didn't love it right away. I thought it was too dramatic, too deep, too whatever. I kept it on and wore it through the mall and...

    This is a beautiful shade of red.I wear this shade when I go out,because it is a little too strong for a daytime lip color look for work.I highly recommend.
